Into The Mystery
:: Into The Mystery ::
Exploring the Tarot archetypes
Through a magical short movie, we enter into the mysterious world of symbols and archetypes of the Tarot.
This workshop is a profound way to explore our values and the meaning of our experiences in order to understand more about ourselves. We learn how to become anchored, solid, and connected.
Format:
- Group size: 6 to 20 people
- From 2 hours to a weekend-long workshop
- Materials required (can be provided): screen to play or project the movie, mats/blankets to lie on the floor. Art materials for longer workshops (glue sticks, ephemera, collage papers, blank cards, markers, pencils, stickers)
